Comment 5 for bug 70565

Hi John,

Sorry for the silly question but in trying to run the patched bzr sources inside the cygwin prompt using the native windows python I am unable to get python to recognize bzr on its path. I have set PYTHONPATH in the system environment variables to include the bzr-0.12 directory and I have even tried setting the environment variable from within cygwin too but it never seems to find the osutils module which is inside the bzr dir.

I do this inside the cygwin prompt:

/c/Python25/Scripts/bzr.bat pull

but it always complains:

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.NameError: global name 'osutils' is not defined
